UFZS / UpUpGirls / アップアップガールズ(仮)

A few days ago they've released thier first original single ( not a K-pop cover ). So far it isn't available for international sale. The best I can tell this was a limited print that was sold locally at the last ' Live gate ' event held Thurdays 19:00hrs'ish JST on Ustream. I like it personally though it does sound a lot like a Hangry & Anrgy single does it not? lol Anyhoo for you who are fans *looks about* in which just looks like just ME here's the link to thier offical YouTube channel / single. Enjoy!

Update: The staff are now uploading thier ' Live Gate ' mini concert events on YouTube providing much better quality then Ustream.

UFZS

Easier to just start by directing you to someone elses research Sayunii

It turns out a few days ago Tensi Love ( K-pop dou ) has provided UFZS with thier original singles as promised. Despite also being known as UpUpGirls / アップアップガールズ(仮) it is clear the focus is for them to become a Japanese K-pop group however they still can be found doing Ustream ' Live Gate ' hour long concerts on Thursdays for thier fans performing any HiP / UFA song from shuffle groups to Momusu. I for one am happy for them & wish them the very best! Ever since Maeda Yuuka left S/M as expected I'm just not interested in them anymore. I was a fan of UFZS before hand, but now my focus & love for these young women has greatly increased of late. My goal is to simply remind people they DO exsist though there target market is South Korea.

As you might of guessed I followed Saho Akari here since I wanted her in Momusu, but now I like her chances where she is now. I winded up also becoming a fan of Sekine Azusa with her own beauty, voice, talent & personality. Overall I'm pleased with the groups talent & potential.

The following are videos links from thier performances in K-Dance Lovers. Normally I'd just add the video here, but you're much better off viewing them on YT in full HD.

UFZS「Cake House & Shine (TENSI LOVE 텐시러브)」「K☆DANCE LOVERS vol.2」 The first song is modified in theme with the original artists video concept however at 4:40 the 2nd song you really discover these women can sing. Enjoy 8)

UFZS「Huh (4Minute) & Bang! (Afterschool)」Dance covers「K☆DANCE LOVERS vol.2」 Though just dance covers I think you won't be disappointed. Crank the bass if you got it 8)>

Game over!

Most who know me probably think I'm a loon for my depressing news post on Twitter, especially about the Federal Government stripping away our rights & freedoms. I had tried to spread the word to get people to ' give a shit ' to no avail. Warning that sooner or later they will touch on something you do care about. Well that day is here.

Federal Governemt shuts down file-sharing site MegaUpload one day after Web protest of SOPA / PIPA

Glenn Beck Explains Why You Should Be Worried About SOPA and PIPA

If you're unfamiliar with SOPA / PIPA they're two bills ( SOPA - House version & PIPA the Senates ) under consideration over the next couple of weeks in which will destory the interent as we know it. These bills, if passed, will allow the Fed. Govt with only the mere complaint from a Copyright holder to shut down, block access & have search engines delist the site / page from thier results. Granted we all know being thier material & exsisting Copyright laws they have the legal right. However these new powers can & will be abused to censor free speech, especially political speech I fear. Some believe as vague as the new potentical laws are written social media will be effected or shutdown. The Government knows we are headed for a complete economic collaspe & are moving to control all media. The internet is our last 'unregulated media'. Are we willing to sacrifice it? Whether you believe me or not is up to you. I'm simply making you aware.


No never mind after the recent passage of the National Defense Authorization Act #NDAA 2 weeks ago the U.S. itself has been decalred a 'battle field' giving the Fed. Govt the power to strip any citizen thier right under the Constitution of 'due process' & our own Military the power to conduct operations here to arrest & detain without being charged with a crime or access to a lawyer indefinite inprisionment or Assassination. Welcome to Totalitarianism if not Fascism.
